The 9th edition of ISIS's controversial propaganda magazine Dafiq ran a lengthy segments admitting to and justifying sex slavery. Moreover, it threatened to sell US first Lady Michelle Obama into sexual slavery for a third of a dinar.

The group which controls a territory larger than the United Kingdom and spans across the border between Syria and Iraq, last month, executed 19 women in its Iraqi stronghold of Mosul for refusing to have sex with fighters.
